Anyone who's been exposed to more technical, more dynamic fighting games will quickly pass on tekken. Other top fighters, namely Street Fighter, KoF and MK have advanced impressively in their latest installments; but the relic that is tekken just can't seem to evolve, furthermore many combos can be done simply by hitting 1-button, and the nearly "instant-kill" rage art moves are just laughably broken. Instead of a supplying a proper fighting engine, matches in T7 seem to rely heavily on "who can get their rage move off first". So many elements of the gameplay don't even require any sort of skill. In my book, slow motion over and over again also gets old very quickly. And in the end, it's more of a novelty or gimmick rather than an actual, thought-out fighting game mechanic. But hey, the casual crowd will be pleased!

If you want something a little more "button-masher-friendly," tekken might be your cup of tea.... Key word, might.

>>377453315
/v/ claims to hate casuals but also loves Zelda. Also, you don't necessarily have to be good at fighting games to not be a casual.
It's better that people admit they don't know about fighting games or just don't participate in fighting game threads as opposed to having people say stupid shit like
>melee is more complex than any other fighter
>Guilty Gear Xrd is good
>fighting game inputs are bad game design

I'm a Street Fighter guy more than a general fighting game fan. I've been playing a little ST and 3S and fightcade, just bought USFIV again (this time on Steam), and I've been working my way to Gold in SFV.

When Tekken rolls around I'll give it a shot though, I played King in the older ones.

There are three broad tiers of "gamers":

High
>People who are genuinely good at games, they have natural talent and enjoy learning how to play competitive games. When they lose they identify why or already understand why and seek to improve themselves.

Middle
>People who may think they are in the upper tier of gamers but in reality either lack the natural talent or have no intention of putting in the time/effort to improving themselves. However in a competitive game they will destroy the lower tier of gamers leading to their egos inflating but will get destroyed themselves by the higher tier of gamers often resulting in frustration when this happens with no attempt to identify why they lost so they can improve, instead blaming lag or claiming their opponent to be cheating.

Low
>People who don't play games very often if ever and don't care at all about whether they win or lose. These people are the true "casual" gamers.

Most of /v/ is stupid, so the fact they bad at fighting games is understandable.

Even the part of /v/ that does know fighting games has shit taste. That's why we got so much 3S fans, but nobody is willing to rep ST, let alone Alpha 2 or Hyper Fighting. Plenty of love for Darkstalkers and Rival Schools, but none for X-Men or Marvel Super Heroes. Tons of people who think they're cool because they play Garou, but nobody giving love to SamSho V. People posting about Skullgirls, but ignoring KI and Yatagarasu. People praising VF5:FS, not even knowing that it's the most casual game in the entire franchise, made for shitters who couldn't play VF4.

>>377456220
>High
Fighting games, smash, arena FPS, yactical FPS, most sims, RTS, grand strat

>Mid
MOBA, platformer, FPS, racing, puzzles, hack n slash, survival

>Low

That's way overgeneralized bullshit

Some people have the talent, some people put in the hours, some people have more self reflection, some have less, you can be a super sperg ragequitting every other match, bitching about how stupid your opponent is and how awesome you are and how when you lose that's basically cosmic intereference instead of a lack of ability - and still make top8 at evo because you grinded down your setups through sheer thickheadedness

Fighting games aren't competitive they are horribly balanced and a reason every single one has tier lists and a couple characters and moves they don't deviate from. Mastering a fighting game involves some 20 hour practice as the top tier character. Barely any effort.

4chan isn't referenced in their gamer tags.

I must be the only one who finds Tekken infinitely easier than SF. In SF, to maximize damage output, you need to use combos. But combos have this retardedly strict timing requirements along with making sure your character is properly positioned with the opponent. Whereas in Tekken you just need to press buttons in a certain order.

>>377462047
there isn't 4chan is full of autists, pro gamers unironically are smart enough to not associate themselves with this shithole.

>>377464209
Fighting games are more than just combos.
SF isn't hard when it comes to combos either. At least not when compared to anime games, for instance.

tekken is most fun when both players dont know how to play

>>377453315
I just have terrible memory.

>>377464334
The highest combo I could do in SF was fucking 4 or 5 hits and that was on a good day. Meanwhile, all the pros are doing these 12 hit combos with cross ups every thing else.

>>377464403
This is bullshit. Properly punishing is extremely satisfying. Far more than my casual Soul Calibur 2 days of "my flashy move versus your flashy move."

>>377464334
Skullgirls and UNIEL have much easier combos than SF4.

>>377455481
>melee is more complex than any other fighter
Melee is highly complex. You putting this relative assessment into other peoples' mouths is a little misleading but the assertion could still be defended quite well.

>>377464209
Tekken is harder at high level because of KBD being needed to open people up and to play characters with bad poking games like Kazuya, and matchup knowledge and prediction are needed to know the proper directions to sidestep in. In SF movement much simpler just cause you don't have to keep cancelling your backdash just to prevent leaving yourself open.

SF execution also got way more lenient in 5 while Tekken still has EWGF and instant while running moves

>>377464209
>>377464673

Actually in SF you don't need combos to win and maximize your damage out. Not even really large ones. SF can be played with a minimalist approach as long as your timing and defence is on point.

>>377453315
because they fall back on retarded arguments to justify their beliefs instead of just saying they arent interested in the genre or lack the skill to play it

humans aren't mass produced robots with the same patterns and quirks
in tekken if you're fighting a character you know absolutely nothing about you may aswell be fighting with the moniter turned off.

I like Hwoarang's new outfit, but goddamn what have they been doing to his design these past few games

I miss his original Tekken 3 outfight--subtle yet distinct

Shmups have versus modes. Also theres a lot of shmups, you could play for years doing new games. I don't know why you think people just reply the same shit.
Fighting games are memorization with inputs and combos. Sure you poke around a bit in between all that but its really just: get one hit in -> input memorized pattern.

Defensive reads are a lot more important than pokes.

I don't even like most fightan games, but it's a little more involved than what you're claiming.

what did he mean by this?
not even memeing but this is really backwards
your enemy has the same tools as you
they have to act defensively in accordance to your attacks do just like you have to do to them
and you can only win by attacking them
what the fuck is he trying to say here?

but there are games that have both SHMUP and fighting game elements.

>>377470567
there is an art of countrerpoking. Most pokes are made so your opponent takes a risk.

It means that if you can't defend you're going to lose to some monkey who is just mashing a lot buttons in your face. If you can read the fact that he's a monkey, you can defend against that and punish accordingly.

Nigga it's 99% muscle memory.

>>377470683
although true,
definitely not what he was saying and definitely not unique to fighting games
gambits are mainstays in most games' metas so fighting games cannot be "more advanced" relative to other genres because of this

I'm saying if you make a bad read on defense, you'll get ripped. If you poke at a bad time, you compromise your ability to defend.

Attacking usually works best against a good fightan player when you've successfully or even unexpectedly made a good defensive play.

Thanks, my man.

>>377470876
Only combos and setups require muscle memory, and that's only a portion of what fighitng games are about.
Figuring out how to beat someone who has been beating you does require intelligence.

So fighting gamers only play against people who don't know how to play fighting games? Thats a stupid thing to say. His argument doesn't make sense in high level play because of this.

>>377470876
If you only make training mode combo videos, sure

>>377471059
That was just an example, friend.

So what you're saying its just poking and baiting until somebody fucks up and then the other guy enters in the "do a lot of damage password" you memorized. Rinse and repeat.

>>377471056
It's more the ability to keep your cool under pressure than intelligence, the problem is people get angry and let their emotions take over and go on the offensive when they should be on the defensive. You definitely don't need to be smart to be good at fighting games, the stupidest fucker i know is good at fighting games.

>>377453315
/v/ is shit as a whole at most games. Over the years I've played with so many of you and it's always so disappointing. /v/ usually has pretty good taste, but they're just trash at anything beyond casual play.

>>377471261
even that obviously simplified explanation shows there's more depth and less memorization in fighting games than in shmups

But then it must be less so if you must account for more then one player in a team based game, or say a typical shooter, no?
With a team v. team you must read the behaviors of all members of the enemy team as well as act in accordance with your team socially for positioning and team roles.
Most team based games require the same kind of refractory skills fighters do but with the addition of more complex decisions then in fighting games. The only aspect fighters offer that other games don't is complex inputs and combos, but most fighter fans will firmly argue this is not were the difficulty comes into fighters.
So by this I believe fighters are less difficult then team based shooters.

>>377472315
Reading your enemies in other kinds of games doesn't really have as big of an impact as it does in fighting games.

>>377472458
yes it does
yes I'm putting the same amount of substance in my argument as you did yours

>>377472550
The thing is, if you actually played fighting games at all in your life, you would know.

>anons bring up counter examples
>y-you're retarded!

>>377472717
I can really just say the same thing to you, watch:

If you have invested significant time in both team based shooters and fighting games you would realize they hold a reasonably higher skill ceiling then fighters and require reading your enemies on a high level.

See? Its called a mere assertion fallacy. The argument is worthless.

I have, tho.
